For over two decades, research on the biological and analytical applications of calixarenes and their derivatives has been shown remarkable properties towards organic and bioorganic molecules. Applications in the field of analytical chemistry and biological activity, as well as the anticancer properties of various calixarenes, have been studied and reported by several research groups. Due

The oxidation of diazepam (DZ) by N-Bromosuccinimide (NBS) in aqueous acid medium follows a first-order kinetics in [NBS] and a fractional-order each on [HCl] and [DZ]. The reaction stoichiometry involves one mol NBS consumed by one mol DZ. The rate of the reaction increases with the decrease in dielectric constant of the medium. Added products

Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) coupled with gas chromatography-isotope ratio mass spectrometry (GC-IRMS) has already been applied to collect and identify volatile light hydrocarbons in oil and source rocks. However, this technology has not yet been used to analyze volatile light hydrocarbons in dry gas (natural gas with C1/C2+>95%). In this study, we developed a method to

Photochromic 5-phenylpyrazolidin-3-one-basedazomethine imines containing 2-benzylidene 1, 2-(3nitrobenzylidene) 2, 2-(4-nitrobenzylidene) 3, 2-((1H-imidazol-2-yl)methylene) 4, 2-(pyridin-2ylmethylene) 5, 2-(quinolin-2-ylmethylene) 6 and 2-((8-hydroxyquinolin-2-yl)methylene) 7 substituents were synthesized. All the compounds exist in the ring-opened O forms. Under irradiation with light of 365 nm, compounds 1-7 undergo thermally reversible isomerization into ring-closed bicyclic diaziridine isomers C. Azomethine imines 4-6 exhibit properties
